SceneMakers

SceneMakers are trusted volunteer leaders who help bring Miss Takes productions and events to life. Selected by ShowRunners, they’re recognized for their dedication, reliability, and care for the community.

From setting up events to supporting productions, SceneMakers keep things running smoothly behind the scenes — creating welcoming, collaborative spaces and fueling our creative momentum.

You don’t apply to be a SceneMaker — you grow into it by consistently showing up, giving back, and embodying the spirit of Miss Takes.

Founders

Amanda Borvá and Vanessa Provencio co-founded Miss Takes Film Club in 2023, starting with a shared vision: to create space for students and emerging creatives to collaborate, experiment, and grow through filmmaking.

Their early work laid the foundation for the values that drive Miss Takes today — creativity, safety, community, and growth. Amanda helped shape the club’s creative tone and cultural identity through early productions, community engagement, and programs like the Writers’ Studio and Honorable Mentions Showcase.
